Climate overview
Temperature
Monthly mean temperatures range from the lowest value, 23.2 °C in January, to the highest, 34.8 °C in June. These are averages for whole months rather than daytime highs, so they should not be read as a limit on temperatures visitors may encounter during the day. The unweighted mean across the monthly means is 30.3 °C, a broad summary rather than a day-weighted annual average.
Rain
The highest mean daily rainfall is 0.87 mm/day in August; visitors planning then may wish to allow for rain and pack suitable protection. The unweighted mean across monthly daily-rainfall averages is 0.14 mm/day. These are daily mean amounts, not monthly totals, and averages do not indicate how often rain falls or guarantee dry weather in months with lower averages.
Sunshine
Mean daily sunshine reaches its highest value of 11.56 hours/day in both April / June. The lowest monthly mean is 10.13 hours/day in January, while the unweighted mean across monthly averages is 10.87 hours/day. These figures can help with broad outdoor-planning expectations, but sunshine duration is not the same as daylight length and does not promise clear skies on a particular day.
Best Travel Time Guide for Khartoum, Sudan: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights
For visitors prioritising cooler monthly averages, January is the relevant reference point, with a mean temperature of 23.2 °C; this describes the monthly average, not daytime maximums or a daily forecast. Those planning activities outdoors can also use sunshine averages as a general guide: the mean daily duration is highest at 11.56 hours/day in both April / June. Sunshine hours do not measure day length or guarantee conditions on a chosen date. If lower average rainfall is a priority, 0.14 mm/day is the unweighted mean across the monthly daily-rainfall averages, but the supplied figures do not identify a lowest-rainfall month, so they cannot point to a specific month on that basis. For rain preparation, note that the highest monthly mean daily rainfall is 0.87 mm/day in August. These averages are not monthly totals and do not establish rain frequency; flexible plans and rain protection remain useful rather than assuming any month will be dry.
